Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
How do you catch a killer, when all your suspects know how to get away with murder?
THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO 2022'S MOST ORIGINAL MURDER MYSTERY, EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE
When the Australian Mystery Writers' Society invited me to their crime-writing festival aboard the Ghan, the famous train between Darwin and Adelaide, I was hoping for some inspiration for my second book. Fiction, this time: I needed a break from real people killing each other. Obviously, that didn't pan out.
The program is a who's who of crime writing royalty:
the debut writer (me!)
the forensic science writer
the blockbuster writer
the legal thriller writer
the literary writer
the psychological suspense writer.
But when one of us is murdered, six authors quickly turn into five detectives. Together, we should know how to solve a crime.
Or commit one...
Critic reviews
'Clever, satisfying, impossible to put down and gloriously inventive. It's fantastic.' (Stuart Turton)
'An outstanding and exceptional mystery from start to finish...everything fans would hope for.' (Jane Harper)
'Sparkling with wit and witticisms about the world of writers and writing, Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect offers a tip of the hat to the great Agatha Christie novel while at the same time being a modern reinvention of it. Leave it to Stevenson to make high-jinx and murder deviously good fun.' (Nita Prose)

Fun! As good as the first.
I like the fun style of the author interacting with the reader. Great narration again! Suggest to anyone who hasn’t read the first to do them in sequence to avoid any spoilers.

Great narrator, fun mystery
Although this author has a relaxed, humorous style which I love, his main character Ernest is beginning to annoy me! He’s a little too smug but Barton Welch’s superb narration saves the day and makes an otherwise irritating character likeable. This series lacks the cleverness and suspense of Stevenson’s other books but it’s an enjoyable listen.

you need to have read the first book
Not sure if i zoned out whilst listening to this book or just found it boring. The end was good but not sure it was worth the effort to get there. Still a good format and I like the way he narrates, just a bit obvious and boring. You do need to have read the first book to read this one but then this isn't as good as the first sadly.

Sadly dsappointed. Not as good as EIMFHKS
Love Barton Welch as a narrator. His intonation and text interpretation is brilliant. Scottish accent made me chuckle but then I'm rubbish at accents, so I will let that slide!
Now, the story. I devoured EIMFHKS. I couldn't stop listening. This book I just couldn't get into. It was disjointed and just didn't flow. I couldn't follow it and it didn't make sense.
I absolutely love the writing style and it hasn't put me off reading other books by Benjamin Stevens, I was just really disappointed after pre-ordering EOTTIAS, it just didn't live up to my excited anticipation.

Must-read for fans of the first
As a sequel skeptic I was quickly reminded of the strength of Stevensons’ character craft - the narrative voice is just as down to earth as in the first book, builds a satisfying web of clues, and still shocks you along the way. A master of playing with the format and subverting expectations in all the right places.

Well worth a listen
Though this is told in a chatty, joking casual way, it is superb writing as having to remind yourself that the narrator is a character. There are also some beautiful observations of human characteristics such as couples saying their partners name multiple times but each time the meaning of why they are saying it changes. And beautiful thoughts of human nature, what it is to be a writer etc.
If you liked this check out the authors exclusive for audible shorter stories too. Just as grand and well thought out. Though you can’t beat Ernest as your narrator.
Loved it! I hear there’s a Christmas one coming too 🤞🏻

A 21st Century 'Who Dun it'.
I was so pleased when I saw this author was due to release a new book. His writing style of this and the previous EIMFIAM is different to most classic 'Who dun its' and after listening to a lot of Harlen Coben and Anthony Horowitz recently I had to get my brain into gear for fear I was going to miss a clue even when they are often flagged as clues 😁.
This is definatley not worthy of the poor 1 star that Ernest got and the narration was great.
